Multipath time-delay detection and estimation
Abstract
A transmitted and known signal is observed at the receiver through more than one path in additive noise. The problem is to estimate the number of paths and, for each of them, the associated attenuation and delay. We propose a deconvolution approach with an additive regularization term built around an l/sub 1/ norm. The underlying optimization problem is transformed into a quadratic program and is, thus, easily and quickly solved by standard programs. The procedure is able to handle more severe conditions than previous methods.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
